Fishery Management

Lake Pro, Inc. is a professional lake management company that offers a variety of fishery management services. We use up-to-date field techniques to evaluate and maintain each new or existing fishery. Recreational fishing is one of the most desirable reasons for building a private lake. Unfortunately, the majority of private lakes are poorly managed and the fishing quality decreases over time. Our fishery management programs are customized for each individual to ensure short and long-term goals. Maintaining healthy fish populations, vegetation control, and water quality monitoring are the main aspects of our fishery management programs. Electro-fishing and netting are the two most common survey methods we use to assess fish population dynamics. We use data collected from these surveys to determine the stocking needs, fish health, and any harvesting restrictions or measures that may need to be taken for each fishery. Nuisance vegetation is another problem common to private lakes, especially in Texas. Vegetation monitoring and control is vital to producing a successful recreational fishery. Our biologists and state certified aquatic applicators are experts in identifying and treating aquatic vegetation problems before they become out of control. Maintaining a healthy balance of desirable vegetation is integral to the success of private fisheries. We are also licensed by the state to stock triploid grass carp to control nuisance vegetation. Whether your fishery is new or established, our professional staff can provide the services you need to maintain and ensure your specific short and long-term goals.
